Merano, Italy skyline: the 30 most iconic buildings and best views in Merano

We went there for a concert during the Merano Music Festival. Very elegant place ❤️

Top event.... great managment!!!

It's so nice, beautiful place, we was here for yoga Days. It an old hall for Zeremonie dance's, conferenz, exibitions, lessons, seminars. Some days Kurhaus is opened for free to visitors and tourist.

I really didn’t think I could believe the 5 star reviews here, but thought to give it a go anyway. And now I can only say, I would rate this place 6 stars if I could. We had the Rinderfilet and it was absolutely fantastic. We also had the beef burger and Mais. The burger was delicious and an excellent portion size. The ingredients are really high quality, and the beef is cooked perfectly. You can tell the chef really cares about making the food well and he often checks on those who ordered a meat cut to make sure it has been cooked to their liking. A lovely place that I would recommend to everyone coming to Meran.

Kurhaus by night: no words needed 🪩🪩🪩 Enjoy the view

A great evening was had by all at the Club 41 Italia AGM Gala Dinner and organised by Club 41 Merano. We also had the Annual General Meeting upstairs. Very spacious and well equipped for conferences. The venue, service and catering for dinner were second to none.

I recently visited this nice place. Very good indeed. I liked it very much and I will come to visit it every time when I have the occasion.

This is one of the best attractions in Merano, 80 different type of landscapes and plans have been set over here. I like the exciting lookout bridge in which hanging out of top, quite thrilling! but have a great panoramic view over Merano. In the castle where people experience old time interior living style, it was once the holiday residence of empress Elisabeth of Austria. All of exhibitions are nicely connected, they are not big to make you feel out of proportion. We spent half day here, and had a decent lunch.

almost didn't go because the rating was quite low but this is one of the best museums ever thanks to its uniqueness and it's included in the price for the gardens

The botanic garden is awesome!!Unfortunately a couple of exhibitions were closed

A fantastic museum, very well exposed

Amazing museum! I think this is a very good example of how a museum should look like. It offers a nice, thematic environment for education with an implementation of interactive elements.

An amazing museum. Don't miss it if you visit the garden.

Very engaging exhibits.

Beautiful place to visit in Merano! Many pictures on the walls that you can admire them, and you can see in those pictures the beautiful nature and cities! Amazing!

The Wandelhalle at Hamburg Hauptbahnhof is a vibrant shopping and dining hub seamlessly integrated into the historic train station. Spanning 7,600 m² over two levels, it houses around 50 shops and eateries, offering everything from fashion and souvenirs to diverse culinary options. The hall's impressive architecture, featuring a grand dome and historic façade, provides a unique backdrop for visitors. Recent art installations, like the "All tagsmenschen" sculptures, add cultural depth to the bustling atmosphere. Unique art installation in the Wandelhalle!"

Lovely Monument to the local area. Makes for a nice scenic walk in the city and a good place to shelter if it rains

A place not to be missed if you are in Meran, full of history, it has benches, good for relaxing, and don't forget the winter walkways along the Passirio river, at the beginning of the Wandelhalle there's a small bar with lots of table outside where you can sit and relax while enjoying the view...

Not to miss if you are in Merano 👍

Very beautiful

Wonderful pieces of art. Café just at the corner and cooling river just next to.

Nice and small art exhibition space in the center of Merano. We went to the Studio Other Spaces exhibition during September 2020 and it was surprisingly interesting. However, unfortunately due to corona, the implementation of the virtual reality installations was very difficult, and took quite a bit of time to set it all up before we could experience it. Maybe have this kind of technology not integrated during a pandemic, when you have to be super careful about not touching anything (complicated with VR headsets), and stick to regular, frame or sculpture based artworks.

Beautiful rooms but the exhibition is nothing special and a bit underwhelming to be honest. Cute gift shop and lovely staff at the front desk though.

As an architect, I enjoyed the building itself - interesting renovation and use of a classic old Meran building. The present exhibit on modern regional architecture was well presented, though some of the buildings/projects featured were not so great. Some, however, we're excellent.

Good contemporary art museum in the heart of Merano. Beautiful location, paired with an interesting architecture inside.

The catalogue of your local ikea is more interesting and impressive

Lovely and very friendly little cafe!

Delicious salat and canneloni. Excellent service.

Great walk along the river of Meran!

(Translated by Google) We owe the beautiful and carefully designed Gilf promenade to its creator, Dr. Prunster. You stroll along the well-laid out paths through diverse vegetation. Those interested in botany can find all the information about the respective plants on small metal signs. Benches placed everywhere invite you to linger and listen. In the back section you can see the large figures, which will be planted with fresh flowers again in spring. At this time of year, in February, everything seems a bit bare, but it is still worth seeing. A personal highlight is the Gilfklamm, where you can impressively observe how the Passer made its way through the rock. The Zenoburg towers majestically above it. On the way back towards Meran you can also branch off from the Gilf Promenade onto the Tappeinerweg. Conclusion: The Gilf Promenade is a worthwhile destination at any time of the year. In summer it becomes an almost idyllic retreat when the summer-winter promenade is heavily frequented by tourists. (Original) Die wunderschöne und sorgfältig gestaltete Gilf-Promenade verdanken wir ihrem Schöpfer, Dr. Prünster. Man schlendert auf den gut angelegten Wegen durch eine vielfältige Vegetation. Botanisch Interessierte finden auf kleinen Metallschildern sämtliche Informationen zu den jeweiligen Pflanzen. Überall platzierte Sitzbänke laden zum Verweilen und Lauschen ein. Im hinteren Abschnitt sind die großen Figuren zu sehen, die im Frühjahr erneut mit frischen Blumen bepflanzt werden. Zu dieser Jahreszeit, im Februar, wirkt alles etwas kahl, ist jedoch dennoch sehenswert. Ein persönliches Highlight ist die Gilfklamm, wo man eindrucksvoll beobachten kann, wie sich die Passer ihren Weg durch den Fels bahnte. Darüber thront majestätisch die Zenoburg. Auf dem Rückweg in Richtung Meran kann man von der Gilf-Promenade aus auch auf den Tappeinerweg abzweigen. Fazit: Die Gilf-Promenade ist zu jeder Jahreszeit ein lohnenswertes Ziel. Im Sommer wird sie zu einem fast idyllischen Rückzugsort, wenn die Sommer-Winterpromenade von Touristen stark frequentiert wird.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful corner of Merano. Simply a place to enjoy. Beautiful grounds and always well-maintained. It has its charm in every season. (Original) Eine wunderschöne Ecke in Meran. Einfach zum genießen. Schöne Anlage und immer gepflegt. Hat zu jeder Jahreszeit seinen Reitz.

(Translated by Google) A very nice path for a stroll. A wonderful waterfall at the end. Along the way, you can admire floristry sculptures. (Original) Sehr schöner Weg zum Spazieren. Am Ende ein wunderbarer Wasserfall. Zwischendurch Bildnisse aus Floristik zu bestaunen.

(Translated by Google) This walk that runs along the banks of the Passirio near Merano is highly recommended. The path, easily accessible even for strollers, is surrounded by vegetation which in any season offers wonderful views of castles and bridges that stand out along the way. At the end of the route you can return to the other bank thanks to a river and follow the short walk in reverse returning to Merano (Original) Consigliatissima questa passeggiata che costeggia le sponde del Passirio nei pressi di Merano. Il sentiero, facilmente percorribile anche da passeggini, è immerso nella vegetazione che in qualsiasi stagione regala scorci meravigliosi di castelli e ponti che si stagliano lungo il cammino. Alla fine del percorso si può tornare dall'altra sponda grazie ad un fiume e percorrere al contrario la breve passeggiata tornando a Merano

(Translated by Google) Continuation of the winter walk that runs along the Passirio, it allows you to connect to the other bank (summer walk or Sissi path) and to the better known and longer Tappeinerweg. Relaxing, always crowded, recommended in all seasons, full of postcard views and numerous artistic interventions. (Original) Prosecuzione della passeggiata d'inverno che costeggia il Passirio, permette di collegarsi all'altra sponda (passeggiata d'estate o sentiero Sissi) e al più noto e lungo Tappeinerweg. Rilassante, sempre affollata, consigliata in tutte le stagioni, ricca di scorci da cartolina e numerosi interventi artistici.

(Translated by Google) A really great trail that leads to the Tappeiner Trail. Even better than the Tappeiner Trail, in my opinion! (Original) Ganz toller Weg, der zum Tappeiner Weg führt. Noch besser als der Tappeiner, finde ich!

Best food in Italy so far! Affagato to die for. Ravioli unbeleieveable! Don't miss this! Dominic was an excellent server

We absolutely loved our wine 🍷 tasting here. Personell was extremely informative, entertaining and had good, fun vibes. In the end we bought 21 bottles of wine. I would recommend this to anyone coming to visit Süd Tirol. Also the dog is super cute.

We stumbled across this lovely place by meeting another couple that were on their way there... Boy were we happy for the recommendation! Whilst I wouldn't recommend the weisse Burgunder wine, the red (produced locally at the winery) was a hit! We ordered the gnocchi with pfifferlingen mushrooms... An absolute delight! Followed by a steak tartar presented to us with all the sides... And we could choose what we'd prefer to have added. A very nice touch. After the ingredients were mixed we were asked to try it. Absolutely fantastic! I would anyone to visit this place that's in the area. We'll be back for sure next visit!

Interesting muzeum of history of wine producing in the region, beautiful location in the middle of vineyard, surrounded by mountains, winery with possibility of wine tasting, so you can taste local products.. Staff is empathic and friendly.. The disadvantage is problematic way to get here when you want to taste wines - local public transport is not very reliable and it's quite complicated and taxi is quite expensive..

Amazing view and wine experience, Best vinyard in the erea by far. Great service and we recomend to sit at the terrasa👌👌

Amazing wine in a lovely scenery. The somalier did a great job presenting the wines

Staff is incredible, the guy that guided our tastings went above and beyond. We got 5 tastings and a view of the museum. We left very happy customers :)

Beautiful on Google

(Translated by Google) The viewing platform in the gardens of Trauttmansdorf Castle is a very special highlight. From here you have a fantastic view of the castle and the surrounding area. Not suitable for people with fear of heights. Highly recommended. (Original) Die Aussichtsplattform in den Gärten von Schloss Trauttmansdorf ist ein ganz besonderes Highlight. Von hier hat man einen traumhaften Blick auf das Schloss und in die Umgebung. Nicht geeignet für Menschen mit Höhenangst. Sehr empfehlenswert.

(Translated by Google) The climb to the platform requires a certain amount of vertical courage, as the floor is made entirely of gratings. The platform itself is quite wobbly, suspended from steel cables, but the view of Merano and the surrounding area is very beautiful! Anyone in the gardens should definitely not ignore the viewer. (Original) Der Weg auf die Plattform erfordert Höhenmut, weil der Boden ausschließlich aus Gittern besteht. Die Plattform an sich ist arg wackelig, da sie an Stahlseilen hängt, allerdings ist der Ausblick auf Merano und Umgebung sehr schön! Wer in den Gärten ist, sollte den Gucker definitiv nicht ignorieren.

(Translated by Google) Stunning afternoon, landscapes and views to take your breath away. The gardens are well kept and the flowers have spectacular colours. The goats are cute, and the view from Matteo Thun's binoculars is fantastic, we will definitely want to go back! (Original) Pomeriggio stupendo, paesaggi e scorci da togliere il fiato. I giardini sono tenuti a regola d'arte e i fiori hanno colori spettacolari. Le caprette sono simpatiche, e la vista dal binocolo di Matteo Thun è fantastica, sicuramente ci vorremo tornare!

(Translated by Google) A truly captivating experience. It's a giant pair of binoculars, with a platform inside that overlooks the castle gardens, allowing you to admire the entire surrounding panorama. A visit is recommended for those who aren't afraid of heights. (Original) Esperienza davvero suggestiva. Si tratta di un gigantesco binocolo, all'interno del quale è presente una pedana che si affaccia proprio sopra i giardini del castello e che permette di ammirare l'intero panorama circostante. Consigliata la visita per chi non ha paura delle altezze.

(Translated by Google) The Merano Town Hall, located on Via dei Portici, was built in the 1930s in Rationalist style, on the site of a previous building dating back to the Habsburg period. Its linear forms contrast sharply with those of the nearby medieval buildings. Its clock tower is particularly noteworthy. (Original) Il palazzo municipale di Merano, situato nella Via dei Portici, venne costruito negli anni '30 del secolo scorso, in stile razionalista, dove esisteva già il precedente edificio, originario del periodo asburgico. Le sue forme lineari, contrastano molto con quelle dei vicini edifici medievali. Particolare la sua torre dell'orologio.

(Translated by Google) The current situation in Meran: more and more traffic! If people are going to switch to bicycles, cars shouldn't be allowed to circulate uncontrollably at the same time, otherwise the whole thing doesn't make sense. Too many buses that go directly to the center. Anti-pedestrian traffic lights in favor of car traffic. No controls on the spa promenade, winter and summer promenade and lower Passer promenade...inconsiderate cyclists circulate there too. There is no longer a place where pedestrians can walk undisturbed. Compared to other cities in Italy, Merano seems dingy, noisy and smelly. There is rubbish and empty bottles on and around the benches. The dogs are really bad and are allowed to run around everywhere in the center on a leash and often off a leash and dirty everything...and there are more and more of them because tourists are now taking their dogs with them on vacation. Fraudulent gangs that even do mischief inside churches. On every corner there are "personaggi pittoreschi" who beg despite support and who literally jump at and scare the Meran guests, and the trend is increasing. People are now avoiding certain streets because more and more ethnic groups are driving away Meran citizens who have long since started turning their backs on the once tranquil Meran in order to shop elsewhere. Many citizens no longer attend evening events for fear of being threatened or attacked. Merano is the focus of negative reports almost every day. In summary: everything is completely out of control here, the downward spiral is in full swing, everything is broken, sad, very sad!! (Original) Die derzeitige Situation Merans: immer mehr Verkehr! Wenn schon auf Fahrräder umgestellt werden sollte, dürfen nicht gleichzeitig unkontrolliert Autos zirkulieren, sonst ergibt das Ganze keinen Sinn. Zuviele Busse, die direkt ins Zentrum fahren. Fussgängerfeindliche Ampeln zugunsten des Autoverkehrs. Keine Kontrollen auf der Kurpromenade, Winter- und Sommerpromenade und unterer Passerpromenade.....auch dort zirkulieren rücksichtslose Fahrradfahrer. Es gibt keinen Ort mehr, wo Fussgänger ungestört gehen können. Im Vergleich zu anderen Städten Italiens macht Meran einen schmuddeligen, lauten und stinkenden Eindruck. Auf und um den Bänken Müll und leere Flaschen. Ganz schlimm die Hunde, die überall im Zentrum angeleint und oft auch nicht abgeleint herumlaufen und alles beschmutzen dürfen .....und es werden immer mehr, denn die Touristen nehmen neuerdings auch ihre Hunde mit in den Urlaub. Betrügerische Banden, die sogar im Innenraum der Kirchen ihr Unwesen treiben. An allen Ecken "personaggi pittoreschi" die trotz Unterstützung betteln und die Meraner Gäste förmlich anspringen und erschrecken, Tendenz steigend. Mittlerweile meidet man schon gewisse Strassen, denn immer mehr Ethnien vertreiben Meraner Bürger, die schon längst angefangen haben, dem einst beschaulichen Meran den Rücken zu kehren um sich anderswo einzukaufen. Abendveranstaltungen werden von vielen Bürgern nicht mehr besucht, aus Angst, bedroht oder überfallen zu werden. Beinahe täglich steht Meran im Fokus von Negativmeldungen. In Summe: hier ist komplett alles aus dem Ruder gelaufen, die Abwärtsspirale ist voll im Gange, alles kaputt gemacht, traurig, sehr traurig!!

(Translated by Google) I wanted to share the pleasure of visiting your city. It's very beautiful and clean, with various attractions and a wealth of activities for passing tourists. Among the various excursions, I really enjoyed the "Tappeiner Promenade," which winds between the hill adjacent to the city and another walk called "Gilf," to which it connects. The walk is full of cute and interesting things, and is even overlooked by a chairlift that's currently closed for some unknown reason. However, more could be done in terms of upkeep and maintenance. It's definitely worth a visit. (Original) Volevo condividere il piacere di aver visitato la vs città. Molto bella pulita con varie attrazioni e l'attenzione a varie attività x i turisti di passaggio. Tra le varie escursioni ho apprezzato molto la "passeggiata Tappeiner" che si snoda tra la collina adiacente la città ed un'altra passeggiata denominata "Gilf" a cui è collegata. La passeggiata è piena di cosine carine e curiose e addirittura è sovrastata da una seggiovia oggi chiusa non so per quale motivo. Come cura e manutenzione comunque si potrebbe fare qualcosa in più. Comunque da frequentare.

(Translated by Google) Clarity is another matter entirely. I asked for an electronic ID card. They calmly replied that I needed to make a reservation, but I couldn't make one. Can you help me? (Original) La chiarezza è tutt'altra cosa. Ho chiesto di poter avere la carta d'identità elettronica. Mi rispondono, con la dovuta calma, che devo passare attraverso una prenotazione che però non mi riesce di fare. Sapete aiutarmi?

(Translated by Google) Merano is generally a wonderful place. However, given the high rate of burglaries in parked vehicles, it would be nice if the municipality of Merano launched an awareness campaign about this... According to the police, to whom we filed a report as victims, the windows of approximately 100 vehicles are smashed every day to steal items. According to the repair shop we chose, a two-euro coin left open is often enough for the thieves. In our case, three minutes of parking was enough for the burglars. It would certainly be good if the municipality would raise awareness about this via social media, posters at gas stations or hotels, and at relevant sights and tourist destinations. It seems to be a real problem that needs to be addressed. And in the long run, it damages the reputation of this beautiful city. (Original) Meran ist grundsätzlich ein wunderbarer Ort. Es wäre aber schön angesichts der hohen Einbruchskriminalität in abgestellten Fahrzeugen wenn die Gemeinde Meran eine Aufklärungskampagne hierüber starten würde... Laut Polizei, bei der wir als Betroffene Anzeige erstatteten werden jeden Tag bei circa 100 Fahrzeugen die Scheiben eingeschlagen um Gegenstände zu entwenden. Für die Diebe reicht laut der ausgesuchten Werkstatt oft schon ein offen liegendes zwei Euro Stück. In unserem Fall genügten den Einbrechern 3 Minuten Abstellzeit. Es wäre sicher gut, wenn die Gemeinde über soziale Medien, Aushänge an Tankstellen oder in Hotels und an den einschlägigen Sehenswürdigkeiten und Besuchsorten darüber aufklären würde. Es scheint ein echtes Problem zu sein dessen man sich annehmen sollte. Und es schadet langfristig dem Ruf dieser schönen Stadt

(Translated by Google) It is the oldest of the three medieval gates still standing, giving access to the city. It dates back to at least the 13th century. Over the centuries, it was also used as a debtors' prison. The Venosta Gate is the starting point of the Via delle Corse, used in the Middle Ages for jousts and tournaments, and today leads to the historic center, with its porticoes. (Original) È la più antica delle tre porte medievali di accesso alla città, ancora esistenti. Risale almeno al XIII secolo. Nel corso dei secoli, è stata anche usata come prigione per i debitori.

(Translated by Google) The bronze monument dedicated to the Tyrolean hero Andreas Hofer, located in the small park in front of the railway station, was erected in 1914 on the occasion of the centenary of the annexation of Tyrol to Austria. The bronze work created by the artist Emanuel Pendel depicts Hofer in the act of taking that oath that will lead him to challenge the enemy for the defense of his homeland and its values. “For God, Fatherland and Emperor” - these are the words reported on the front of the monument - that the local hero pronounced. The monument is still today a meeting place for official ceremonies in the presence of various Schützen companies also coming from Austria, Germany and Trentino. (Original) Il monumento in bronzo dedicato all’eroe tirolese Andreas Hofer, situato nel piccolo parco di fronte alla stazione ferroviaria, venne eretto nel 1914 in occasione del centenario dell’annessione del Tirolo all’Austria. L’opera in bronzo realizzata dall’artista Emanuel Pendel raffigura Hofer nell’atto di compiere quel giuramento che lo porterà a sfidare il nemico per la difesa della patria e dei suoi valori. “Per Dio, Patria e Imperatore” - queste sono le parole riportate sul fronte del monumento – che l’eroe locale pronunciò. Il monumento è ancor oggi luogo di ritrovo per le cerimonie ufficiali alla presenza di diverse compagnie di Schützen provenienti anche dall’Austria, dalla Germania e dal Trentino.

(Translated by Google) Very impressive, especially if you know the history. (Original) Sehr beeindruckend, vor allem wenn man die Geschichte kennt.

(Translated by Google) In some other places monuments are being destroyed, it's barbaric. Monuments of all kinds are part of human history! (Original) In manchen anderen Orten werden Denkmäler zerstört, das ist barbarisch. Die Denkmäler aller Art gehören zur Geschichte der Menschheit!

(Translated by Google) A must for anyone who wants to learn and experience something about Andreas Hofer and the freedom struggles of 1809. This monument was renovated in an exemplary manner just a few years ago and is the scene of a worthy and colorful commemoration every year on the weekend of February 20th. (Original) Ein Muss für jeden, der etwas über Andreas Hofer und die Freiheitskämpfe von 1809 erfahren und erleben möchte.

(Translated by Google) This bronze monument in the small park in front of the train station was dedicated to the Tyrolean freedom fighter Andreas Hofer. It was built in 1914 to celebrate the centenary of the annexation of Tyrol by Austria. The work by the artist Emanuel Pendulum depicts Hofer taking the oath in which he swears to defy the enemy and defend his homeland. “For God, Emperor and Fatherland” are the words that were affixed to the front of the monument and are associated with the freedom fighter. Today the monument is still a meeting point for official ceremonies with the presence of various rifle companies from Austria, Germany and Trentino. (Original) Dieses Bronze-Denkmal im kleinen Park vor dem Bahnhof wurde dem Tiroler Freiheitskämpfer Andreas Hofer gewidmet.

Auch heute noch ist das Denkmal ein Treffpunkt für offizielle Zeremonien mit Anwesenheit von verschiedenen Schützenkompanien aus Österreich, Deutschland und dem Trentino.

(Translated by Google) How can such cultural monuments end up in private hands? There seems to have been a backlog of renovations here for a long time. It's a real shame. I hope the city puts some pressure on this to prevent something like this from simply being abandoned and to open it to the public. (Original) Wie solche Kulturdenkmäler in private Hand gelangen können? Hier scheit seit langem ein Sanierungsstau vorzuliegen. Echt schade drum. Ich hoffe hier macht die Stadt mal Druck, damit so etwas nicht einfach zufällt und für die Öffentlichkeit geöffnet wird.

One of the only place in the world where you can examinate furnitures of the early 16.th century.

Wonderful. Worth the visit

Most immersive and unassumingly magical castle we've visited!

Please don’t trust the information about Merano in internet On google and on website is written that Castello is open. So I came here. This is what i found. Very disappointed

Really well preserved! It's very cool to get a glimpse of how nobility lived centuries ago. Small but great. Worth the visit!

Excellent view into history in this ancient castle that must have been the most impressive dwelling in the region when it was young. You'll value your modern conveniences more than before...

In this magical town you bump into castles when you least expect. Tiny and cute right by the "Seat Lift' to Tirol City

(Translated by Google) We spontaneously stayed at the Hotel Santer Klaus for two nights with five people. It's really central for a trip to Merano, so many restaurants and bars are easily accessible in the evening. The rooms are new and tidy. A few small things were missing, which we also mentioned to the manager so that the next guests could get a small upgrade (shampoo holders in the shower, a set of towels was missing, no toilet brush, no toilet paper, an extra bed in the triple room was only available upon request, no room service in the room, and breakfast wasn't ready at 8:00 a.m., so we had to start our hike later). If these little things can be improved, it's a really cute little hotel. (Original) Wir sind spontan für zwei Nächte mit fünf Leuten im Hotel Santer Klaus untergekommen. Für 'nen Trip nach Meran echt zentral, also abends easy viele Restaurants oder Bars erreichbar. Die Zimmer sind neu und ordentlich. Ein paar Kleinigkeiten haben gefehlt, die wir dem Chef auch gesagt haben, damit die nächsten Urlauber ein kleines Upgrade kriegen (Halterungen für Shampoo in der Dusche, ein Satz Handtücher hat gefehlt, keine WC-Bürste, Toilettenpapier fehlte, Beistellbett im Dreibettzimmer kam nur auf Nachfrage, kein Roomservice im Zimmer, um 8:00 Uhr war das Frühstück noch nicht fertig, sodass wir später mit unserer Wanderung starten konnten). Wenn die kleinen Sachen verbessert werden, ist es ein echt süßes kleines Hotel.

We spent five unforgettable days at Rundegg – hands down the best hotel experience we’ve ever had. The staff and the food were absolutely top notch. We’re already planning our return.

We stayed three nights in the tower room (quite larger than photos convey) and cannot speak highly enough of our experience. An absolutely exquisite castle hotel in every respect. Hands-down the most personal resort experience we've ever had. The entire team totally delivered the royal treatment, and we felt more like we were cherished family than guests. The pristine grounds are tranquil. The spa, pools, and fitness room are all exquisite. And the restaurant -- there is simply no substitute. Dining anywhere else was not even a consideration. Truly an amazing stay. Old-world style and comfort. We felt instantly at home and in a bubble of relaxation. A short walk to the center of the historic river promenade. Other guests were so interesting and friendly. We will most certainly visit again.

Lovely historic hotel with fantastic views and extremely courteous staff. Wonderful outdoor pool and a convenient indoor one for bad weather. Breakfast and dinner were top notch, made even better by the historic interior of the dining hall. It’s very close to the center, but removed just enough to not be disturbed by constant foot traffic one sees in the old town quarter.

I stayed at the Schloss Rundegg in December 2019 and am hoping to get there again this year. David told me I was his first guest from Australia! I had unfortunately had my purse stolen in Venice and everyone was so kind to me at such a stressful time. It's a fabulous hotel with a wonderful restaurant and fantastic staff. And to top it off, I woke to find it had snowed overnight! That's a fairy tale for we Australians. I highly recommend the Rundegg. xx

So glad we stayed here in 2019! Staff: Daniel and David were incredible. 5 star service. I was just learning Italian and they were both fluent in English as well as Italian which really helped me. Food: Amazing breakfasts and dinners. Grounds were spotless. Watched doves flying with a mountain backdrop while enjoying breakfast, it was incredible. Pool felt great on hot days. Couples massage topped off an already perfect stay. I look forward to staying there again in the future

A must stay in Merano! We absolutely loved it here! It was the best stop on our tour of Italy. A beautiful Schloss in a beautiful town. The people were amazing - super friendly and accommodating. David and Sonja could not have been nicer to us. David gave us hiking tips, eating tips and told us all about the history of the Castel and the work they have done to restore it. Sonja gave us a tour of the grounds, showed us some of the other rooms the Schloss has to offer and was there for any questions we had. The room we had was perfect and had a beautiful balcony that overlooked the rest of the grounds. We ate breakfast and dinner there everyday of our stay. The food was delicious and David helped us Americans choose and enjoy the wonderful food of South Tyrol. I can't wait to come back!

Hello. I highly recommend! Great hotel! Breathtaking views, two pools to choose from indoor or in the beautiful garden Very nice staff and management ... Individual approach to each client! Surely we will come back soon

Visited this place twice once in 2016 and once in 2019. Was truly a great experience and a nice town to complement this health resort so you don’t really get bored as I have usually experienced in other “shut off” health resorts

A great place for detox and relaxation. Beautiful nature, very polite staff

I don't know who write those messages, but I can tell you my experience They are currently doing works, with 2 cranes working from 7am in the morning. I went there for a diet, and they changed it to detox, without telling me. The appointments are always late. when I told the manager of the noise, she said it was my problem. Don't go. 500 euros a night are a scandal for this.

Never seen such a beautiful hotel in my life... the 5 stars yes but superior in all ... quality ... service ... spa ... and the class that distinguishes it ... staff very kind and up to any problem is exposed ... tranquility and privacy ... top

Revital is a superb 7 star detox and rejuvenation spa ,

Entering via the Park into the great Foyer you'll enter a real Grand Hotel. Luxury style par excellence.

Very beautiful and luxury hotel jn the heart of the city. Amazing views around the hotel and perfect position.

Do yourself a favor and book your stay here! My husband and I wish we would have been more on top of it and booked this place for 3 or 4 nights but they were out of rooms so we ended up only staying two nights. We were in a suite which was the most spacious room I’ve ever stayed in. Came with a little kitchen, dining area and terrace. The grounds were the most impressive part...immaculately kept and went on forever. Make sure to layout by the pool with a perfect view of the mountains. We were not there when contessa Eliane was but the keeper (i forget his name) and Brigitte were so welcoming! We adored them both.

Beautiful castle with an ancient atmosphere.

Amazing location ♥️ Italy 🇮🇹

Beyond beautiful location for a wedding or similar. The gardens and grounds are absolutely incredible and we will never forget our time here.

(Translated by Google) We attended a wedding reception held in this castle. The vastness of the park is incredible with centuries-old trees and many flowers, all very well looked after. A beautiful experience. The aperitif in the park and lunch in the internal courtyard of the castle. It is a private residence so the bad reviews seem out of place to me.....because you can't visit..... (Original) Abbiamo partecipato ad un ricevimento di nozze tenuto in questo castello. Incredibile la vastità del parco con alberi secolari e molti fiori, tutto molto curato. Una bellissima esperienza. L'aperitivo nel parco il pranzo nel cortile interno del castello. Si tratta di una residenza privata quindi mi sembrano fuori luogo delle pessime recensioni..... perché non si può visitare.....

A piece of art and a hidden gem at the same time

(Translated by Google) Rubein Castle is a place of peace and relaxation. We visited for the fourth time in September and enjoyed our stay with friends. (Original) Schloss Rubein ist ein Ort der Ruhe und Entspannung. Wir waren im September zum vierten Mal hier und haben den Aufenthalt gemeinsam mit Freunden genossen.

Really nice room and the staff was extremely kind and helpful!

Superschön

(Translated by Google) Really excellent location 3 minutes walk from the spa and the Christmas markets! Warm welcome, clean and spacious room, shared bathroom but really very clean. Coffee and hot tea available in the corridor, but there would be no water. Convenient price compared to offers in the area. Thanks for the hospitality! (Original) Posizione veramente ottima a 3 minuti a piedi dalle terme e dai mercatini di Natale! Accoglienza calorosa, camera pulita e spaziosa, bagno in comune ma veramente molto pulito. A disposizione caffè e tè caldo in corridoio, mancherebbe l'acqua però. Prezzo conveniente rispetto alle proposte della zona. Grazie per l'ospitalità!

(Translated by Google) Very nice B&B, all modern and well organised. Impeccable cleanliness. Very close to the spa and the centre. The bathroom is shared on the floor but there are few rooms and the bathroom is practically always free. The only flaw: for a B&B the breakfast is very sparse (tea, coffee or herbal tea, apples). Apart from this, absolutely recommended. (Original) B&b molto carino, tutto moderno e ben organizzato. Pulizia impeccabile. Vicinissimo alle terme e al centro. Il bagno è in comune al piano ma le camere sono poche e il bagno è praticamente sempre libero. Unico neo: per essere un b&b la colazione è molto scarna (tè, caffè o tisane, mele). A parte questo assolutamente da consigliare.

(Translated by Google) Overall, this is a very good accommodation, offering a fair price-performance ratio compared to most accommodations in Merano. The room and bathroom were very clean and well-maintained, and the staff were very friendly. However, the mattresses were so worn and uncomfortable that we couldn't have a comfortable night's sleep. The Wi-Fi was very unstable and unusable. Hence only 3 stars. (Original) An sich eine sehr gute Unterkunft, die im Vergleich zur Mehrheit der Unterkünfte in Meran durch ein faires Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis besticht. Zimmer und Bad sehr sauber und gepflegt, Personal sehr freundlich. Allerdings waren die Matratzen derart durchgelegen/unbequem, dass wir keine angenehme Nacht verbringen konnten. Das WLAN war sehr instabil/unbenutzbar. Daher nur 3 Sterne.
